What grade does this episode deserve? Did the word "prediction" ever mean anything? Whose name are we writing in a Jokerman font? We frankly turn on each other as we answer these questions and more covering Season 1, Episode 17 of Family Matters. Alex Diamond, David Kenny, and John McDaniel heard that the long-running network sitcom Family Matters ends with side character Steve Urkel going to space. And the best way to figure out how that happened - obviously - is to watch the last episode first and make our way backwards through nearly ten years of television.Join our countdown to number one (and our slow descent into madness) in all the places you expect internet people to be:Website: jumpingtheshuttle.spaceEmail: jumpingtheshuttle@gmail.comInstagram: @JumpingTheShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577Twitter: @JumpingShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577TikTok: @JumpingTheShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577Brought to you by Smooth My Balls

Canada is full of corporations consolidating market power, from grocery stores to internet providers to movie theatres. And people are starting to notice. Sometimes it's obvious, and sometimes less so. Paul was surprised, for instance, to find luxury cookware brand Paderno at Canadian Tire – until he realized it's one of many brands that Canadian Tire owns. In their book The Big Fix, Vass Bednar and Denise Hearn talk about how markets in Canada became increasingly dominated by a handful of huge companies, why it harms us, and what to do about it.

A few months ago we did a story about Our Lady of Mercy Heritage complex in Port au Port West. The committee that runs it were crowned the winners of a national competition, the Next Great Save. The committee got a total of fifty-thousand dollars towards restoration of the old church. This past weekend, they had their fourth annual quilt show, where many people's donated quilts were put on display all over the complex. The CBC's Amy Feehan stopped by to take a look and get an update on how things have been going since the group won the contest.
Is Canada ready to get serious about tackling monopolies and oligopolies?You've heard it before, the old joke that Canada is three telecom companies in a trench coat. Or airlines. Or grocery stores. You've probably heard it here before. That's because Canada has a monopoly and oligopoly problem – and it has for a long time.The United States has long faced its own challenges with market concentration — and for or once, Canada might not be too far behind.To understand the state and future of competition in this country, we ask: Is Canada ready to get serious about tackling monopolies and oligopolies?On this episode of Open to Debate, David Moscrop talks with Denise Hearn, writer, applied researcher, and c0-author of the upcoming book The Big Fix, which is out this October.

In this special episode focused on the “The Big Fix,” we hear about climate solutions from around the world. Akureyri, Iceland is on the verge of becoming the world's first town to go carbon neutral. The town of 18,000 residents has some natural advantages, including abundant hydro and geo-thermal energy. And, the Russian invasion of Ukraine sent energy costs surging, European leaders scrambling for alternative suppliers of gas, and redirected flows of Russian oil toward Asia. At the time, more than half of Germany's gas came from Russia. The war pushed a German government that was behind on renewable energy goals to enact some ambitious new policies. Also, the average size of a small farm in India is less than three acres. That makes small farmers there highly susceptible to the changing weather patterns brought by climate change. Tune in for these stories and more from “The Big Fix."___Our reporting is independent, inclusive and in-depth. Best of all, it's listener supported. Will you give today to support theThe World?

Jack Tsigankov, Payrix Information Security Director, really knows how to put things in perspective when it comes to data and information security.As our guest on this episode of the PayFAQ Embedded Payments podcast, he tells host Bob Butler that cyber threats and attacks are constantly happening across merchants and the financial industry. In 2022 alone, there were around 1,800 publicly reported data breaches, a 40% increase from 2021 and at an all-time high average cost of over $4,000,000.“Data and information security are not just important, but absolutely critical for our partners in the payments industry,” he says. Staying vigilant and proactive and safeguarding sensitive information is imperative for all software companies with Embedded Payments.The leading cause of data breaches often include human error, according to Tsigankov. To prevent them, it's crucial to implement a multi-layered security approach, involving employee training and awareness programs, robust access controls, regularly software updates, strong encryption methods for databases and using applications, and continuous monitoring for suspicious activities.He also recommends that security audits and penetration testing should be part of a software company's robust information security policy as well as the top 10 security controls. In addition, he suggests using tools like Big Fix or Auto Mocks that help companies automatically push updates to end users' machines.With a company's credibility, trust, and success on the line, the significance of information security cannot be overstated. “Follow the best industry practices. Pick one framework, like PCI DSS or NIST, and implement their best practices in your ecosystem. By sticking to those practices, you shouldn't have any data breaches or vulnerabilities in the future.”Don't miss this informative conversation to learn more about what you can do to protect your payments data and what Payrix does to help protect you.

When was the last time you went barefoot? When the skin of your body touched the ground. At the beach, in the forest, in the park. Rebecca Harrell Tickle and Josh Tickle are a duo of documentary film directors in the USA. In 2012, they made a film called "The Big Fix" about the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. Their film was very successful, though, during filming, she was exposed to pollution for an extended period. The exposure to the pollution caused her to develop severe skin disease. She searched and searched for anything that would help her, but believe it or not, the thing that helped her the most was walking barefoot.

That book became THE BIG FIX: 7 Practical Steps to Save Our Planet. And over the course of the book, Hal and Justin provide readers with seven essential changes communities must enact to bring greenhouse gas emissions down to zero. Today, Hal and Justin join The Net Zero Life to break down The Big Fix in detail, and as always, I ask them to share their climate origin stories and climate role models. Hal is a Stanford trained engineer, and CEO of Energy Innovation. He is the recipient of the UN Climate and Clean Air Award, the Heinz Award for the Environment, and the State of California's Haagen-Smit Clean Air Award. Presidents Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush both called on Hal to Serve on national and international climate panels. Justin is an award-winning journalist with four decades of experience with major daily newspapers, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Miami Herald. As the lead reporter on climate science at The Times for nearly a decade, Justin won the John B. Oakes Award for Distinguished Environmental Journalism for a series of front-page articles exploring the basics of the climate crisis.
